DENR Sec. Gina Lopez suspends 4 mining companies

A week after she requested a review on mining operations in the nation, Environment Secretary Gina Lopez on Friday, July 8, reported the suspension of 4 mining organizations for disregarding ecological guidelines.

"We're taking after the law. There was a Writ of Kalikasan issued against these 4 organizations by no less than the Supreme Court. So we're great. I'm simply taking after the procedure," Lopez said. A Writ of Kalikasan ensures the sacred right to a solid domain, as gave in Section 16, Article II of the Constitution, which expresses: "The state should secure and propel the privilege of the general population to an adjusted and invigorating environment as per the beat and concordance of nature."Must Read: Duterte slams Manny Panglinan: You are only a puppet, while I am the elected President of the PhilippinesSource: Rappler
